    I gathered your son is a boot camp. The ship he is referring to are names of barracks. Refer back to your form letter and look for the PIR (Graduation from Boot Camp) date and join that group. Here is a list - just click on the underlined link:

                       PIR: 1/18/2013             TG 10 - ? Divisions

                       PIR: 1/11/2013             TG 9 - 7 Divisions (053-058 & 909)

                       PIR: 1/04/2013             TG 8 -  9 Divisions (045-052 & 908)

                       PIR: 12/28/2012           TG 7 -  8 Divisions (039-044, 906 & 907)

                       PIR: 12/21/2012           TG 6 - 11 Divisions (031-038, 803, 904 & 905)

    You should check out the information on this discussion.

         You'll see a diagram of the barracks and the names (after US ships) for each barrack.

    If I assumed incorrectly and your son is deployed on an official US Navy vessel, then check this list of Navy For Moms groups associated with REAL ships:

    Good luck to your son. BQB
